OT: Official Sports Media Thread VIII - Milbury out as NBC hockey analyst after 14 years

[Smitty93]

Someone texted me today and said, "NESN got rid of the ticket!" and I was excited for a bit because I assumed it was an autocorrect of "ticker." Boy was I disappointed to see it was the logo....

Hate that stupid ticker.

Clearly NESN thought the feedback was "everyone hates the ticket" not "everyone hates the ticker".

Apparently Bel Biv Devoe narrated this little video about the new logo.

Apropos, since the new logo is poison.

NESN has taken its “big blue ticket” to the shredder.

Say hello to the sleek, leaning double “N’s” of the new logo for NESN, the flagship television station of the Boston Red Sox and Boston Bruins.

Drawn up by a Los Angeles-based brand design firm, the logo is the first re-do of the network’s logo in 33 years. Its official debut came during the pregame show before Thursday’s Bruins season opener. The change to the more contemporary design was made, according to media kit material, to convey that NESN is ever-changing and to reflect the network’s growth.

The original logo was created in 1986 by the MMB Ad Agency in Boston

“I see hills, I see waves,” said NESN Bruins play-by-play announcer Jack Edwards, adding it’s “a new classic logo that speaks of tradition in the digital age.”

NESN design director Tony Saia said it’s “a refreshing update that opens up a whole world of design possibilities.”

I just talked to the switchboard operator and she says callers are not happy

I want to know who calls a tv station to complain about a logo change.

It’s 2019. Bitch about it online like the rest of us.

The new logo represents the twisted logic people are using to criticize Jack Edwards over the Polak comment

btw, the dispute between Tegna and Spectrum that's been brewing for over a week now was resolved with an extension early Saturday AM, HAD there been no agreement, Maine likely would've lost all NBC Programming
